  • Contribute to detailed technical specifications and RFCs, helping shape design standards for the engineering organization.
  • Participate actively in code reviews and lead technical discussions on systems architecture and engineering best practices.

Required Qualifications

  • 4+ years of professional software engineering experience.

  • Bachelors or Masters degree in Computer Science or equivalent field.

  • Deep, hands-on expertise in modern C++ (production-level experience required) .
  • Strong understanding of software design principles and patterns for modular, extensible systems.
  • Proven ability to collaborate and communicate effectively in technical discussions and design reviews.
  • Experience contributing to or developing in blockchain, distributed ledger, or decentralized protocol environments (or a demonstrated passion for the field through open-source projects, research, or personal initiatives) .

Bonus Skills

  • Experience designing and implementing distributed systems at scale.

  • Familiarity with Rust or other systems-level programming languages.

  • Interest in blockchain economics, consensus algorithms, and decentralized system design.
